Our process is an extension of the heating/quenching/tempering cycle for metals, based on contraction and expansion of a metal object's molecular structure. When an object is cast or formed for the first time, it's microstructure is randomly set while cooling. Resetting the jumbled molecular structure to become more uniform and evenly dispersed leads to a wide range of benefits for the part.
We freeze your materials to -184 degrees Celsius / -300 degrees Fahrenheit with liquid nitrogen using a computer-controlled temperature profile to modify microstructures and improve properties of objects in treatment.
Longer times at lower temperatures establish crystal alignment, enhance bonding energy and obtain structural balance throughout every material. Our process provides a 72 hour turnaround time with a life-long irreversible treatment.
